Rails error when starting server - ruby-on-rails

Question

I'm just starting with rails and I'm having the following error when starting the server.
$ rails s

The stack trace shows you are having a problem with the linecache19 gem. A Google search shows that others have encountered the same problem: it seems to be an incompatibility between that gem and Ruby 1.9.3.
Is linecache19 in your Gemfile? If so, can you just remove it? (Do you really need it?) If it's not in the Gemfile, look in Gemfile.lock and see if it's listed as a dependency of one of your other gems.
